Re: Please,List some Iconic Swords from fiction.
Well, okay. This is one of the more random lists I've seen, but whatevs.
Marvel's Black Knight has the Ebony Blade
Light Sabers: Honestly, at this point I'm about done with Star Wars, but even I know that lightsabers are awesome.
Snaptrap/Piranacon's sword: I think every combiner's sword will stick in the head of a TF fan, so I'm not gonna go with, like, Grimlock's or Razorclaw's. But Piranacon's is a sword that's also a trident that either "burns with cold fire" or is also kind of like a chainsaw, depending on what source you go with. That sort of leads into...
Abslom Daak's chain-sword: I don't think I'd run into a chain-sword before I ran into the adventures of Abslom Daak: Dalek Killer. Maybe not as big a deal as some of the others, but that was a distinctive-ass weapon, you gotta grant.
The Sword of Gryffindor: Couldn't tell you what it looks like, so maybe it loses iconic points for that, but then again, what does Excalibur look like? Anyway, it settled things in a wildly popular book series, surely it counts as much as, say, Conan's sword.
This is kind of a stretch, but the Star Saber was a pretty big thing for awhile there. And it's got a pretty distinctive appearance. That count?

Re: Please,List some Iconic Swords from fiction.
There are a couple from Tolkien's stories that I can think of off the top of my head:
Gurthang - the black sword of Turin from The Silmarillion
Anduril - Aragorn's sword from Lord of the Rings
Sting - Bilbo's sword
Orcrist, the orc-cleaver
Glamdring - the foe-hammer
I'm sure I'm forgetting a lot. Tolkien liked to give his characters named weapons.

Re: Please,List some Iconic Swords from fiction.
Kratos' Blades of Chaos from God of War. Flaming swords on chains are pretty awesome. Also, from God of War, the sword bridge that Kratos crosses to get to a level in the first one which he then uses to kill Aries with at the end of the game. From the second game, the Blade of Olympus.
The Arishakage Ninja swords from GI Joe.
Wasn't there some sort of wierd-ass looking sword in Halo?
Baraka's arm swords from Mortal Kombat (I'm not sure if that counts since they're actually part of him and not hand held). Barring that, Sub-Zero's ice sword.
The Master Sword from the Legend of Zelda.
That's all I got for now. Might think of others later.

See, that one's a camcorder, that one's a camera, that one's a phone, and they're doing "Speak no evil, See no evil, Hear no evil", get it?

Which one? There's the mini-con Starsaber from Armada and then there is Prima's Starsaber with the Matrix as the hilt.138 Scourge wrote:This is kind of a stretch, but the Star Saber was a pretty big thing for awhile there. And it's got a pretty distinctive appearance.
And then there is the Energon Saber remolded from the Armada Starsaber.
The Z (or Zeta) Sword was actually the sword Gohan used to train with while in Other World during the Majin Buu saga.Tigermegatron wrote:Dragon Ball Z Sword that Trunks uses. called the " Z " Sword or Trunks Sword.
How about the Green Destiny sword from "Hidden Tiger Crouching Dragon"
"Avatar: The Last Airbender" had a couple iconic swords. Zuko's duo dao swords and Sokka's space sword as he liked to call it.
Blackbeard's sword that he used to control his ship in "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides"
